Are the jars part of the project, or are they artifacts that you depend on? That seems to be a large part of what you may need to change. If the jars are artifacts that can be found in a standard repository, just mark them up as dependencies. If they are generated by your project, they

Hi gang, I need to apply a small patch to a project that has already been released. In general, I understand that I need to branch the tag under which the code was released, make the change, then create a new release. I'm running into a problem, I guess with the release plugin, though.
